Comment(by vijay):

 Replying to [comment:18 koki]:
 > On second thought, why display the "Turn off screen" checkbox and slider
 at all when power management is not supported? Why not just hide them in
 that case?

 I would prefer to follow an approach which is used uniformly in apps
 across haiku for this kind of situations(where an apps feature depends on
 a driver).Putting the text below/above/removing controls all sounds good
 to me.But is there any standard way to do these things since this is the
 first time iam doing UI programming.If graying out unsupported features is
 used across apps then i believe it is more apt than removing controls.
